Summary: The Senate Higher Education and Workforce Development Committee first opened a hearing on SB 6090, which would direct Washington State University to establish a Heritage Orchard Program to register, preserve, and propagate heritage orchards and rare or lost apple varieties. Sponsor Sen. Braun said the bill would honor Washington’s apple-growing history and support research at WSU at low cost, though staff noted a fiscal note was not available. The hearing was then closed. The committee then held a work session on student complaints in higher education. Faculty, union, and research witnesses argued that student complaint systems are sometimes misused against faculty, especially faculty of color, women, and contingent faculty, causing stress, attrition, costs, and harm to academic freedom. They urged safeguards such as an initial review for bad-faith or biased complaints, routine data collection, and a faculty bill of rights. Members asked about data tracking and FERPA/Title IX issues, and witnesses said complaint data is inconsistently collected across institutions. The committee next heard SB 5931, a technical cleanup bill for the Workforce Education Investment Accountability and Oversight Board. The bill would extend co-chair terms to two years, move the annual report date to December 31, and remove an unfunded dashboard requirement. WASAC, labor, and Microsoft testified in support, saying the changes would improve board effectiveness and preserve institutional knowledge. The committee then heard SB 5963, which would automatically treat Passport to Careers students as income-eligible for the Washington College Grant beginning in 2026–27 and make related funding changes. Supporters said it would streamline aid for former foster youth and unaccompanied homeless youth, many of whom already receive the maximum grant, while members asked about outreach and how the Passport funds are used. The committee also heard SB 5978, which would codify the Washington Guaranteed Admissions Program and require student notifications about guaranteed admissions, financial aid, dual credit, and related opportunities. Supporters, including students, colleges, and advocacy groups, said the bill would reduce anxiety, improve transparency, and help more students see college as an option; several members discussed keeping the proposal cost-neutral. Finally, the committee heard SB 6082, which would require JLARC to audit fraud in state financial aid programs, including fictitious students and AI-enabled schemes. The sponsor said the bill responds to emerging fraud risks, while community and technical college witnesses said colleges already have fraud controls in place, warned the audit would be an unfunded and delayed response, and asked for more resources to address the problem. The committee adjourned after closing the hearing on SB 6082.

Summary: The Senate Higher Education and Workforce Development Committee first received a work session presentation from the Washington Student Achievement Council on the Passport to Careers Program. Staff explained that Passport serves youth who experienced foster care at age 13 or later or unaccompanied homelessness, with about 2,000 students expected to be served in 2025-26. The program provides scholarships of up to $2,000, plus flexible campus support funding and training through a partnership with the College Success Foundation. Testimony emphasized that students often face basic-needs insecurity, work long hours, and still have significant unmet financial need even after Pell, Washington College Grant, and Passport aid. Officials said the program has grown 131% since 2019, but appropriations have not kept pace, forcing reductions in award levels from $5,000 in 2023-24 to $2,000 in 2025-26. They also noted strong outcomes, including a reported 31% eight-year graduation/credential rate and 84% of surveyed students saying Passport made them more likely to enroll or stay enrolled. Senators asked about comparisons to overall student graduation rates, the share of participants who are parents, where students attend, and how campus support staff are funded and deployed. The committee then moved into executive session on several bills. Staff summarized measures on medication abortion access at public postsecondary institutions, changes to Washington College Grant and College Bound Scholarship awards for private nonprofit four-year institutions, low-enrollment program review at state universities, technical changes to the Workforce Board, veteran dependent tuition waivers, Passport to Careers funding and eligibility, a JLARC audit of state financial aid fraud, and creation of the Heritage Orchard Program at WSU. During action, the committee adopted a proposed substitute for SB 5931 and voted do pass on SB 5826, SB 5828, SB 5909, SB 5931 as amended, SB 5954, SB 5963, SB 6082, and SB 6090, sending each to the Ways and Means Committee. One senator stated opposition to SB 5826, citing cost and administrative burden concerns, but the bill still passed the committee. The session then adjourned.

  • And full committee is kind of... Full committee at some point.
Bills: HB1012
Summary: The Senate Appropriations Human Services Division met to consider House Bill 1012, the Department of Human Services budget, and reviewed three previously made amendments: correcting a reference to $30 million underfunding, changing “human service centers” to “behavioral health clinics,” and revising section 31 language so the department would review medical assistance services and report findings and recommendations rather than directly implement adjustments. The committee also discussed whether to include funding related to two other bills with fiscal impacts, House Bill 1485 (personal needs allowance) and House Bill 2399 (PRTF reimbursement), noting those measures may go to conference committee and that appropriations could be added there instead of in HB 1012. The committee agreed to proceed with HB 1012 and members noted provider inflation questions would be raised later in full committee. The division then approved a due pass recommendation on the amendments to HB 1012 and, after a roll call vote, approved HB 1012 as amended on a 4-1 vote, with Senator Mathern voting no. Senator Davison was named as carrier. Members also discussed House Bill 1577, involving wastewater project financing and possible amendments related to a line of credit from the Bank of North Dakota for specific projects, and House Bill 1619, for which additional amendments were expected before full committee action. The meeting ended with general thanks and adjournment.

Summary: The Early Learning and Human Services Committee held public hearings on several bills focused on early learning access and disability services. House Bill 2317 would exempt certain ECEAP and Head Start programs located in public school buildings or on public school property from DCYF child care licensing when they operate part-day or school-day. Staff explained the current licensing requirements, and the prime sponsor and testifiers from Head Start, ECEAP, and private school groups said the bill would reduce duplicative oversight, delays, and costs while helping expand preschool access. House Bill 2099 would expand ECEAP eligibility for military families and add prioritization factors for deployed and single custodial military parents; the sponsor and multiple advocates, including military and early learning organizations, said military families face unique child care, housing, and readiness challenges and need better access to preschool slots. House Bill 2350 would require DSHS to notify residents, guardians, and family members when a residential habilitation center is found out of compliance with federal CMS requirements; the sponsor and disability advocates said the bill would improve transparency and help families respond to safety and care concerns. The committee also heard House Bill 2318, which would allow ECEAP and Head Start children to count toward the 5% participation threshold needed for Early Achievers quality improvement awards. The sponsor said the change would provide modest additional funding to providers serving high-need children and help support child care programs with thin margins. Testifiers from a remote nonprofit child care center and the Head Start/ECEAP association said the current rule can discourage providers from enrolling ECEAP children because it can jeopardize award eligibility, and that the bill would remove an unintended barrier without changing the program’s purpose. No votes were taken; each bill was heard and then the committee moved on or closed the hearing.
